Fred looks certain to leave Manchester United this summer and the Brazilian midfielder has hired new representatives amid transfer interest from Fulham and Saudi Arabia
Manchester United midfielder Fred has hired new agents with the club prepared to listen to bids of £20million for the Brazilian amid interest from Fulham and clubs in Saudi Arabia.
The midfielder’s interests will now be managed by Energy Sports, who represent a host of Brazilian clients with Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus the most prominent of the stable. It is a further hint the combative midfielder is set to bring an end to his five-year stay at Old Trafford this summer.
Fred joined United following a big-money switch from Shakhtar Donetsk but has only won an EFL Cup during his time at the club. Former United captain Roy Keane has been critical of Fred in the past and the 30-year-old has also frustrated boss Erik ten Hag at times over the past year.
Ten Hag has prioritised revolutionising United’s midfield since his appointment at the club. Immediately recognising the position as an area of concern, he instructed chiefs to land two midfielders last summer with Christian Eriksen and Casemiro both arriving.
